Best way (especially for Wintel machines) is to use TSM to remove
old scheduler, then uninstall TSM, then install new TSM and setup
new scheduler.  Config files like dsm.opt, dsm.sys and incl/excl
files are not deleted by uninstalling.  (They weren't installed by the
install process, so it doesn't know about them.)  If you have some
really special config in them, you might make a copy to be safe.

I suspect that HPUX , would be like AIX in that just doing an
upgrade would work o.k.

Hi,

What is the proper way to upgrade TSM clients (TSM 3.7.x and TSM 4.1.x
clients on Windows and TSM 4.1.x client on HPUX)

1. Just install the new client over the old version

2. Uninstall first the old client. What about the client config files
(dsm.opt, inclexcl files and dsm.sys). Remain they intact or copy them
first to another location. And what about the TSM client schedular
service: just stop it or should it be uninstalled first prior to the
uninstall of the BA client).  Install now the new version. And if
necessary copy the config files again and start the schedular again.
Test the connectivity by launching the BA GUI.

And the same question for the TDP's of MS SQL and the TDP for Informix
on HPUX.

The upgrade process for the server is well discussed in the
installation guide, but I don't find this information for the B/A
client.

Thanks,

Kurt
